Possible homebrew uses include: Refractometer and pH sample collection, yeast rehydration, yeast washing and slurry storage. Also an easy vessel for making and storing sanitized water.  I use similar containers to collect samples and to aid with yeast rehydration.  Check out Tip 1 on our Tips Page for more info on my process for yeast rehydration.

Notes from HBF: These are HDPE and have a stated max temp of 80C/176F. The picture appears to show a variety of sizes. From the way I read the product description, you get 6 x 1 liter lab containers.
